ASUS Zenbook S16 OLED UM5605WA 16.0' 3K 120Hz OLED Touchscreen Laptop (AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 Processor, 32GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, UK Layout Backlit Keyboard, Windows 11 Home, Wi-Fi 7)

Overall I'm very happy with the laptop. It got the Ryzen AI 9 365 skew. It's fantastic to use, it's got an amazing screen with brilliant resolution and it's an absolute beast in terms of laptop performance. My only issue is Windows 11 which I'm not into although I noticed it has the whole new Recall feature built in if you're into the sort of thing. Was easy to install Ubuntu 25 on and works like a dream. The build quality is solid and I really like having such a large and responsive trackpad. Only negative might be that the keyword isn't the easiest to type on, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.Overall so much better than any laptop I've owned before and honestly can't see what more I could want that would justify the over 2K price tag of more premium laptops.

This was a difficult buy for me after reading the reviews for this laptop, however I decided to base my eventual decision to buy it on the reported specs. I have only been using it for one week or so but this is without a doubt the most amazing laptop of this quality for this price. I see now that it is about £100 cheaper than when I ordered it which really only bolsters my review. It isn’t a gaming laptop but it runs games as large as Warzone without over heating or glitching. It comes with a free three months of game pass. It hasn’t crashed even though I have nearly maxed out the hard drive’s storage. A dynamic OLED screen. It has a nice mature aesthetic and is inexplicably light. When it got delivered I thought they had left out the laptop or something because of how light the parcel was. I don’t know if I have been able to debunk all the negative comments and convince you to buy this but I definitely don’t regret this purchase and if you are a stand up person who uses computers sensibly and not aggressively I think you will enjoy this purchase just as I have. Once again 10/10.

Let's start with the positives.It's a good-looking laptop, which is thin and light.Screen is excellent, with rich realistic colours.The AMD AI 9 365 processor, with 32 GB of RAM, is very snappy, and more than capable of running video editing software programs such as DaVinci Resolve, and light gaming.On battery, it's virtually silent when running light programs. It also runs very cool.The negatives.It claims to have up to 14 hours of battery life, however, this is based on things like watching a video with the Wi-Fi turned off, at its lowest screen brightness. In reality, 6 to 8 hours, is a more realistic figure when doing normal light tasks.When the laptop is connected to a power source, the fans spin up, even when just using a web browser. Is not noisy by any means, but you can definitely hear it. I suspect it's something the do with fast charge, which creates too much heat.When the screen is set to 120 Hz, which is the default setting when it's plugged into the mains, the screen occasionally blinks/flickers. This problem was improved via a BIOS and graphics card update, however, these updates created even more problems. The laptop then constantly crashed, i.e. the blue screen of death, especially when running demanding programs. I've also read another review, stating that the laptop constantly crashes, therefore it may not be an isolated problem, but either a hardware or software problem with this particular laptop.In the end, I had to return the laptop. It's a shame, because it's got great specs, at a reasonable price.

It's a beautiful laptop and very powerful. Much faster than my 2019 MacBook proI forgot windows has lots of quirks to test your patience but I don't know whether its window or Asus or user fault.Screen is beautiful, I wish it was Matt rather that shiny as reflections can affect the screen.Sound from the speaker isn't as good as expected but then it is a laptop not a sound system.Is it worth it? The specs are top end. I'd maybe expect it to have a dedicated graphics card but the onboard chip is VERY powerful so it does compare somewhat.Full price i wouldn't buy it but it is the same level as a MacBook M3 which is it more expensive with lower storage m. Trest yourself. The YouTube videos on the product are very favourable

I have not thoroughly tested it. See some hiccups with Japanese menu, fixed it already. But then why I rated 5 stars? 2 things: 1) Config: Ryzen AI 9 365 + 32 GB RAM, and 2) Price. I am pretty sure you can't find this price elsewhere. I turned it on, it works fine. As mentioned, not tested it thoroughly, but for the reasons above, it is 5 stars. If you are looking for a new AI PC and do not want to give £1000+ for a similar config, look nowhere. If you look for a perfect laptop with hardware and software both perfect, you should check it yourself if it fits.

The 90hz 2.8k OLED screen is very good for the price.75Wh battery lasts a long time.It feels sturdy and well made.The 7730U processor does the job but will be bad for gaming especially at native resolution.The ports selection is fine. It's not thunderbolt but 10 Gbps is still pretty good

Beautiful on the outside, but disappointing in day-to-day use. Performance is good, but several strange hiccups ranging from a flickering screen, the blue screen of death for no reason, and sometimes shutting down without opening for a few minutes of pressing the power button for no reason. Above all else, the thermals and fan - are always, always blazing.Minecraft, anything more than 5 chrome tabs, or even a zoom call, was enough for this laptop to get uncomfortably hot with noticeable fan noise. The chassis and feeble cooling are to blame, and overshadows everything that's great about this laptop. It only says terrible things about how long this laptop will last, despite its steep price tag; don't be fooled by the pretty lid and OLED high-resolution display.
